Yup, that wasn’t a mis-read for the title. Below is a little sattire about Lance winning and winning and winnning… EURO DISNEY, FRANCE, July 29, 2071 – Lance Armstrong wrapped up the overall title today in the 2071 Tour de France, and increased his record of Tour trophies to forty four. In what has [...] Yeah I know, I look greasy. And yes, that IS a mustache; not mud. But lets look at the important detail,logo on my chest, this will hopefully get a few people to come visit the site! This picture was taken in Kingston when I raced the 5Peaks trail run (I placed second). As [...] In my last post I showed a schedule that would encompass a year of training. The three main ingredients were Strength, Aerobic and Race Specific Training (RST). These were further broken into three sub categories which are endurance, power and speed. In this post, I’d like to talk about the first part of the [...] We have a fellow reader that needs your help! I don’t know if you can help me. I love the tri. The problem? I’m 40, lives in MN, married & have 7 kids who only has time for 1 tri/yr. Today I did my 4th one. I only have 1/2 hr day to work [...] Saturday had the makings of an “epic” day (seems we use epic a lot on LMS). The ingredients of the day called for: 2000m lake swim. 800 warm up and 4 x 200 hard with a 200 easy between. The 200s were beach starts with all out spurts. Afterwards a 2-2.5 hour ride consisting of [...] For those of us in the northern hemisphere, June to October-ish is THE season for fresh food. If you can grow it yourself, great. But even if you can’t, farm markets are everywhere at this time of year …100-mile diet and all that. Summer food at my home means simple, fast and fresh [...] People daydream about all sorts of things. Cars, sex, money, and bike porn. It was about 4:15 yesterday (at work) when I had this moment of clarity. I was dreaming of scheduling or more specifically, “the best training program ever made”. Working with myself and two other athletes gives me a lot of feedback [...] Last weekend was the final *oomph* in a 3-week build and the largest volume to date. Fancy Lake Thursday was a long swim, 4500m open water, at Fancy Lake. I started before the regular practice doing laps from one end to the dock and back (600m). It worked perfectly as part way through [...] Here is a snap shot of my past week. Friday – Get to work for 7am to start the day early. Boss doesn’t realize it. Leave at 11am for the drive to Moncton. Get stuck in traffic in Montreal, lose 40mins. Drop Figs off with Amanda’s mom in Fredericton. Get into TJ’s place at [...] This scared me when I first read this title, because I immediately thought of Cliff and Amanda, who live in Ottawa. Luckily (for us and them) they would have still been in NB at that time, and Cliff and I were actually out for a ride of our own in Fredericton. This is an [...] Sometimes we all need a little break. Well this week at LiveMultiSport headquarters were putting our feet up, taking sometime off from our scheduled posting to do other things like training, visiting family, training, going to weddings, training and training. Sometimes these breaks are necessarily. We will be back soon enough however to [...] And coincidentally my first Olympic distance. Too bad I can’t say from Sprint to Ironman but Coach had other ideas, namely a couple of warm up Olympics prior to The Big Event. It was a long, tiring, tri’ing weekend. A drive to Moncton on Saturday – after the start of the Tour of course [...]  |
